Big fan of Robyn's, hadn't heard this before, so thanks for posting. Agree with many of the comments, including the one re "earnest". He is minimised and marginalised by being funny, but many people miss the earnest in him. The saddest and most earnest songs often start with a joke, just to get rid of it!

Roxy is sacred. So is Robyn Hitchcock. And this is good.

I saw him do this way back in the late 80s at an in-store at Tower Records (Sports Arena) in San Diego.

This is terrific! Idiosyncratic, of course. But best of all--earnest.

Roxy is great-Love it all even with the personnel changes over the years...But take Robyn's cover as a compliment. Covers shouldn't always try to be exactly like the original.

Transcendant.........so nice to hear the lushness of the lyrics and melody without a lush production. I am sure the ferryman would approve. Hats off Robyn

@bathsheba56 He sure does get to the heart of the song. I love his cover of Roxy Music's 'Take a Chance with Me' as well.

This is very hard to play. Robyn is guy who has been out there for years, playing solo a lot of the time. He understands, maybe, as he said, from his appreciation of "Visions of Johanna," how one guy can get up there with a wood box and six strings and an understanding of the heart, and make people get the shivers. Thanks for posting. And thanks Robyn.
